USING THE TABLE FEATURE
The table feature can be activated by pressing 2
nd
GRAPH. In order for the feature to
work, you must have at least one equation entered in the Y = menu. Before proceeding to
the table, I first want to introduce the TABLESET feature. This is activated by pressing
2
nd
WINDOW on your TI-83.
After pressing 2

Currently AUTO is highlighted. This means the calculator will automatically fill in a
table starting at x = 0 and increasing by values of 1. To see this concept we will
reproduce Table 2 on page 18. Let Y

= x
